Landings at Alafia is a townhome community in Riverview, in southern Hillsborough County, located off Gibsonton Drive near the banks of the Alafia River. It was developed by Highland Homes, which described it as the builder's first new-home community in Riverview when it launched, offering easy-maintenance townhomes (Tampa Bay Newswire, 2017).
The homes are three-bedroom townhomes with two-and-a-half baths and a one-car garage, built in two main floor plans in the roughly 1,580 to 1,750 square foot range, with the community built out mostly in the late 2010s (Highland Homes; listing data, confirm per unit). The HOA handles exterior maintenance and the community includes a swimming pool, which is the core of the low-maintenance pitch.
Riverview is one of the most active growth corridors in Hillsborough County, with strong population and job growth and ongoing road work along Big Bend Road and the I-75 interchange (Observer News, 2025; FDOT and Skanska, 2025). That brings convenience and services, and also traffic and construction the buyer should factor in.
Because the community sits near the Alafia River corridor, the most important diligence is the flood and insurance read. Parts of Riverview near the river carry flood-zone designations that affect insurance cost, and the Alafia watershed flooded during Hurricane Ian in 2022, so verify the FEMA flood zone and an insurance quote for the exact unit, along with the HOA dues and what they cover, before you fall for a price.
